Howdy folks! Are you having a good weekend? We're having a cool and dreary day in Iowa (well on Saturday anyway) - and that brought some much needed rain today (Saturday! ). Probably not enough to make a big difference, and a little too late to help out most of our crops, but we do a little dance these days when it does rain. It's pretty chilly tho - the high I'm sure didn't get about 60, and we have an outdoor party to attend tonight. I'm wondering if I need to wear a turtleneck - and ya - it is only August. I don't usually break those out until November. Maybe October. Anyway.....I know you came here to see some paper piecing creations from The Paper Players. Well, did you check out that little number above? Isn't she just the sweetest? I went a little crazy on this gal. I pieced her dress, the pumpkin and her socks and hat. It was a little tedious - but my best customers know that I don't mind fussy cutting anything. And I know that my best customers appreciate me even more when I don't make THEM fussy cut!
Aren't you loving that chevron dsp? Super cute. In fact, the Halloween paper from SU this year is probably my all time fave. I like that it's not gothic or full of skulls and crossbones. I like that it's trendy yet classic. Great patterns that will stand the test of time. That's totally me! I like a good classic turtleneck, blazer, herringbone pattern, tweed.....you name it! And the plaid I used here for this little gal's dress - how adorable did that turn out? She'll be styling for years to come!
